For many of us, our beds are our sanctuary. They’re where we retreat to after long, stressful days and where we prepare to take on the day ahead. They also tend to get more use than most other furniture pieces in the home, so the right bedding can make a big difference in your daily (and nightly) life.
What Are Eucalyptus Sheets?
Before deciding on eucalyptus sheets, it helps to know exactly what they are and why so many people find them beneficial. “Eucalyptus sheets come in many forms, but in essence, they begin with the wood pulp of eucalyptus plants being dissolved in solvents to create fiber,” said Anni Stromfel. When woven together, the resulting fibers are super soft and offer some of the best cooling capabilities of any sheet type.
In addition to being comfortable and cool, eucalyptus bedding is also an excellent option for breathable allergy sufferers. According to Karen Rohr, “Eucalyptus sheets are a popular choice for people with allergies, as they are naturally hypoallergenic and repel dust mites.”
The Benefits of Eucalyptus Sheets
Given how many benefits eucalyptus sheets can bring to the bedroom, it’s easy to see why they’re so popular. “Eucalyptus sheets are highly breathable, moisture-wicking, cool to the touch, and luxuriously soft and smooth,” said Anni Stromfeld. This makes them ideal for regular use for hot sleepers and anyone who suffers from night sweats.
Additionally, eucalyptus is a much more eco-friendly than other popular sheet materials, like cotton. Karen Rohr says, “Eucalyptus is a more sustainable material than cotton. Growing requires less water and is often sourced from certified forests.”
Besides its lightweight and breathable features, eucalyptus bedding feels great on the skin. “The fibers are longer and smoother [than many sheet fabrics], resulting in a luxurious feel that is perfect for those with sensitive skin,” says Rohr.
Allergy sufferers can also find much to love about eucalyptus sheets since, according to Rohr, “They’re naturally antimicrobial and resistant to mold and mildew.”
